Frequently Asked Questions
My older Kinderhook home has flickering lights and outlets that don't work. Is this a common issue you see?
Yes, aging wiring in historic Columbia County homes is a frequent call we receive. Over time, insulation degrades and connections can loosen, creating potential safety hazards like flickering lights or dead outlets. As a third-generation local electrician, we're familiar with the specific wiring methods used in homes throughout the area. We can safely diagnose the issue, whether it's in the panel, the wiring itself, or at a specific fixture, and provide a repair that meets current safety codes, ensuring your home's electrical system is reliable.
I'm considering an electric vehicle. Can Austin's Electric handle the charging station installation?
Absolutely. Installing home EV charging stations is a specialty service we provide. Our process begins with a thorough assessment of your home's existing electrical panel and service capacity to ensure it can support the new load safely. We then handle the complete installation, from the dedicated circuit and proper wiring to mounting the station itself, ensuring everything is up to code. As a locally owned business, we're here to support our neighbors in making this practical upgrade to their homes.
What sets your approach to electrical panel upgrades or replacements apart?
Our approach combines formal education with generations of practical know-how. We don't just swap out panels; we analyze your home's entire electrical demand, both current and future, to recommend a solution that provides safe, ample capacity. We take immense pride in neat, organized workmanship inside the panel—a sign of a quality, long-lasting installation. Being a family business that has served this community for over 100 years, we stand behind our work and ensure every connection is made correctly and by the book for your peace of mind.
